furnished  by  the  various 
societies,  boards  and  conven¬ 
tions.  The  Bible  references  for 
each  day  were  selected  by  Mrs. 
W.  A.  Montgomery,  Miss  Ina  E. 
Burton  and  Mrs.  Stacy  R.  War- 
burton.  The  topics  for  prayer 
were  for  the  most  part  suggested

The  greatest  need  in  the 
promotion  of  the  world  program 
of  Jesus  is  earnest,  intelligent 
prayer.  May  this  Book  be  of  help 
in  the  achievement  of  this  end.
